Like most fairly advanced users, I'm barely conscious that the menus and toolbar
are even there. Once in a while I'll explore them. The only thing I've ever used
them for is to go to the Options menu, particularly to set faces and the like.
And when I do, some sort of sausage is ground out the other end.
So my question, a general one with a specific case in mind is: Is there a way
to find out, even if it means prowling around in source somewhere, what
elisp is executed when a user selects a given menu choice?
This last couple of weeks I've spent combing over my XEmacs configuration
from top to bottom has been extremely productive for me, buit there is just
one more thing that I can't figure out. Everything looks right when I come
up except the font is too small in pretty much all buffers. I've found that
if I go to Options => Font Size and select 14, everything is fine from then
on. It seems logical to suppose if I knew what elisp magic happens when
I do that, I can put that at the end of my init files and not have to do it
with the menus.
And in case anyone is wondering, yes I have the default face set with
the size. In fact, in every face I've customized, I have the size set, but
it doesn't make any difference until I do it from that menu option.
(custom-set-faces
'(default ((t (:foreground "gray65" :background "black" :size
"14"
:family "courier"))) t) ... more )
I'm down to the nitpicky stuff now.
